To make someone feel special ...

This past weekend was my Papa's would be birthday, and man how we all miss him! Our family got together to celebrate by doing his favorite-- a fish fry! Since then, have been thinking more and more about him and how he made all of us feel special, and I think I've decided " it's all in the name". Papa has 10 grandchildren; everyone of those 10 have their own special nickname that papa has given them. Looking back, that special name that only you and him shared meant the world! He never forgot it, he never called you by your birthname,and he always made a point to use it. It's funny noone else picked uP on the names- it was something only the two of you shared. As we gathered together to celebrate his life, I know was and is smiling down on all of us: sweetie pie, blondie, nubin, bubba, sassafras, beaucifus, buddy, ms. Aster, Putter pants, and peanut! So, here's to my papa- the best grandfather you could want. we love you and we miss you
